'Office's' Robinson pleads guilty to drugs

Los Angeles -- U.S. actor Craig Robinson, who plays warehouse supervisor Darryl on NBC's "The Office," has pleaded guilty to felony drug possession, authorities said.

Los Angeles prosecutors said Robinson, 36, agreed to one felony count of ecstasy possession while another felony charge of methamphetamine possession and a misdemeanor driving while under the influence charge were dropped, People Magazine reported Wednesday.

"The judge allowed him to enter a drug-diversion program," Los Angeles District Attorney spokeswoman Jane Robison told reporters. "If he completes counseling and stays clean for 18 months, the case will be dismissed."

"Mr. Robinson really appreciates and takes seriously the opportunity which has been given to him by the court and the prosecution to have all of the charges against him dismissed, upon successful completion of a counseling program," Robinson's attorney Blair Berk said in a statement.
